Born in 1946 I learnt to cycle about 10 years later. On a bike with rods connecting brake levers to the brakes - anyone remember those? I emigrated to Australia (from the UK) in 1974 and moved to Tasmania in 1984. Bicycles were in my life for most of that time although sometimes they were replaced by motorised two wheels for a bit more excitement. On reaching 70 I decided to stick to pedal power but in 2019 an electric recumbent made an appearance. it's now 2023 and I have 3 bikes. 2 e-recumbents and the Brompton.

Post 250 – who’d a thought?

Yes folks, this is my 250th Blog Post. I suspect there has been a bit of repetition happening with too much Norfolk Plains in the last couple of years. But, just as we think about heading further afield – Omicron arrives – so I suspect there will be more Plains stories yet !

An Overseas Visitor

And now for something completely different ………..

A small visitor arrived from across Bass Strait yesterday. Ernie from Sesame Street had wrapped himself up in a parcel and arranged postage to Longford – with a little help from Emily.
